I would be interested in any feedback should you or a member of your
staff participate.

 

The EDUCAUSE/Internet2 Computer and Network Security Task Force has been
working with Microsoft security officials over the past several weeks
(even prior to the latest string of incidents) to establish a dialog
between Microsoft and the Security Task Force about security practices,
vulnerabilities and future plans.  I will provide more information in
the next few days and will seek your input to our agenda.

 

Thanks,

 

Rodney Petersen

Project Director, Security Task Force
